WBC need to consider the impact that their proposed development strategy will have on the highway network within the borough. The key objective of this evaluation is to provide an assessment of the transport impact from future development and the sensitivity of the highway network with regard to traffic distribution from the proposed development. The model used for the evaluation was SCC’s County Model (SINTRAM). SINTRAM is a strategic traffic model that covers the key road network in Surrey. The county model makes use of three vehicle types: Cars, Light Good Vehicles (LGVs) and Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) and at present only assesses the AM peak hour (0800 – 0900). The base year of the model is 2005 and the future forecast year is 2026. WBC provided SCC with planning data that is proposed to occur in the borough between 2005 and 2026. The data was provided in accordance with the models zoning system and consisted of residential data only. Commercial forecasts were obtained from TEMPRO. From this data two future year scenarios were created, Scenario A and Scenario B. 2026 Scenario A consisted only of developments that already have been approved by planning permission, whereas 2026 Scenario B consisted of all developments irrespective of whether they have received planning permission or not. The amount of trips projected to be generated from all developments stated in WBC’s planning data was calculated using the Trip Rate Information and Computer System (TRICS) database. These projections of trip generation along with TEMPROs growth factors for commercial developments were imported into the future 2026 matrices of the test scenarios to produce future matrices and projections of traffic flows. In addition to the two test scenarios (Scenario A and Scenario B), two other reference scenarios were incorporated. Firstly a 2005 Base year scenario was used to reflect the road network at the present time. Secondly a 2026 Do-Minimum scenario was created to act as a reference case to the two test scenarios. The 2026 Do-Minimum scenario retains the Waverley borough trips at 2005 base year levels but all other external trips grow at rates as forecast by the DfT’s TEMPRO database. Two networks were used in the modelling process, a 2005 and 2026 network. The 2005 network reflects the road network in its current state. The 2026 network is the same as the 2005 but includes the Highways Agency’s Hindhead Improvement Scheme. This is because the Hindhead scheme is programmed to open to traffic in 2011, and inclusion of this scheme in the assessment will produce a more robust and representative analysis of future traffic conditions. The total number of estimated additional departures in the Borough of Waverley for Scenario A is 720 and 218 arrivals. Whilst in Scenario B, the estimated total number of additional departures is 1,686 and 2,582 additional arrivals. The model predicts that total non-trunk traffic flow within Waverley during the AM peak hour would increase by approximately 10,100vkm (3.2%) in 2026 Scenario A when Issue No. 01 Page 4 of 83 Document No. 3380\WBC\01 Transport Evaluation for Waverley Borough Council’s Core Strategy compared to the 2026 Do-Minimum. In 2026 Scenario B, traffic flow would increase by approximately 36,400 (11%) when compared with 2026 Scenario A. The model predicts that total trunk road traffic flow generated within Waverley during the AM peak hour would increase by 1,300vkm (3.9%) in 2026 Scenario A when compared to the 2026 Do-Minimum. In 2026 Scenario B, trunk road traffic flow would increase by approximately 3,100 (9%) when compared to 2026 Scenario A. The main areas in the Borough of Waverley which are most affected by the additional trips generated from the proposed developments are the four main urban settlements: Farnham, Godalming, Cranleigh and Haslemere. Specifically Farnham, the A31 corridor, between the Runfold Junction and Hickleys Corner, could potentially be impacted by a general increase in link and junction delay. With regard to the three AQMA sites within Waverley, all sites could potentially be impacted by the new trips generated from the forecast planning data. None of the these traffic impacts are significant but it was found that 2026 Scenario B produced the largest impacts when compared to 2026 Scenario A. Scenario B is the scenario that generates the largest amount of additional trips and presents the largest traffic impacts within the context of this evaluation. A general trend from the outputs is that Scenario B has the greatest impacts on the local traffic flows in Waverley, when compared to 2026 Scenario A. However, none of the impacts produced from 2026 Scenario B are of a significant amount to cause disruption or lead to major improvement measures on the road network in the Borough of Waverley. Issue No. 01 Page 5 of 83 Document No. 3380\WBC\01 Transport Evaluation for Waverley Borough Council’s Core Strategy 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1.1 Waverley Borough Council (WBC) is in the process of developing their Local Development Framework (LDF). As part of the LDF and to inform the Core Strategy, WBC need to present and consult on their preferred options for development in the borough. One of the aspects that need to be considered when developing the preferred options is the impact that the development strategy will have on movement and transport. In February 2009, WBC commissioned Surrey County Council’s (SCC) Transport Studies Team to evaluate the transport implications for future developments identified in their draft Core Strategy. 1.1.2 SCC is working in partnership with WBC, assisting with the development of their LDF. This assistance includes the provision of technical expertise to ensure that the resulting LDF will pass all the “test of soundness” and meet SCC policies and objectives. 1.1.3 The main aims of the evaluation are to: • Determine the sensitivity of the highway network to the distribution of development within the borough. • Provide a general assessment of the transport impact from future development within Waverley for the forecast year of 2026. 1.1.4 This report considers the impacts of the LDF between 2005 and 2026. The evaluation will also focus upon identified Air Quality Management Areas (AQMA) in Waverley (see Section 6). 1.2 Objectives 1.2.1 The main objectives of the evaluation were to: • Identify the locations and estimates of additional commercial and residential development in the borough; • Calculate the distribution of vehicle trips resulting from the additional development; • Prepare a 2026 traffic forecast based on these developments; • Compare the resulting 2026 traffic forecasts for each development scenario against a suitable reference; • Report the main traffic impacts and conclusions arising. 1.3 Scope 1.3.1 The study will use the existing County Model (SINTRAM). This model is currently an AM peak hour model, and study will be based upon this time period. The model base year is 2005, and the future forecast year is 2026. 1.3.2 For comparison purposes a 2026 Do-Minimum scenario was developed as a reference. This is described later in paragraph 4.1.3. Two networks were used in the modelling process: a 2005 network and 2026 network. The 2005 base network replicates the road network in its current state, whereas the 2026 network is the Issue No. 01 Page 6 of 83 Document No. 3380\WBC\01 Transport Evaluation for Waverley Borough Council’s Core Strategy same as 2005 but includes the Highways Agency’s Hindhead Improvement Scheme, which is currently under construction. There are no other committed highway schemes in the area so the Hindhead Scheme is the only highway alteration involved in the forecasting.

  • 3Rd Epsom Scout Group Official History
    3rd Epsom (St. Martin’s) Scout Group History 3rd Epsom Scout Group Official History Version 8 Compiled 2018 This history has been compiled from such records such as St. Martin's Church magazine, minutes of Group committees, AGMs, log books and the history of Epsom and Ewell District. Many thanks are owed to David Faulkner who has compiled the majority of the history up to 1992 together with other people associated with the Scout Group, particularly the Collins family, Leslie and Edith Clark, Michael Arthur, Shirley Quemby (nee Moore) and Richard Ascough. We hope you enjoy reading this history and feel that you then know a bit more about the Group as the longest continuous registered Group in Epsom and Ewell. Inevitably there will be omissions and errors, therefore if anyone has any additions or corrections, however small, they would be very much appreciated. Richard Ascough Group Scout Leader Version 8 Page 1 3rd Epsom (St. Martin’s) Scout Group History The 1990's This new decade started with so much happening that it is difficult to know where to begin. The programme of the refurbishment and modernisation of the HQ was now in hand and work had already started. The total cost was estimated at £24,000 and towards this the HQ Committee had "saved" about £5,000 (mainly because fundraising had continued very profitably but little work had been carried out while the lease was negotiated); and the Church had generously donated £3,000. Another benefactor now appeared in the Mayor of Epsom & Ewell, Councillor Robert Lewis who although he had no positive connection with the Group (other than that the Mayor's Secretary, Maureen Chartres, was a former parent) adopted St.

  • Wrecclesham Sport
    18. WRECCLESHAM SPORT. It is perhaps surprising that a small village like Wrecclesham should so consistently provide and nurture a range of high performers and in a number of sports. The Farnham Wall of fame in South Street provides recognition for four top sports performers, all internationals, who have lived and developed their talents in the village. In comparison the performance of the Wrecclesham village teams is somewhat modest. However the opportunity they provide for local young people is important. Sporting achievement in Wrecclesham dates back to the 18/19th Century. It was then more or less confined to cricket. There were very few other sports identified as present in the village at this time. It must be remembered that the main occupation of the male members of the community was in agriculture. The men were hard working and probably had little time or energy for recreation. If anything the women worked even harder in the homes and with the children and there were few creature comforts. No electricity, no television, radio, central heating or motor cars. Water had to be gathered from wells or streams and the overall health of the population was generally as poor as their wealth. One thing of which there was no shortage was public houses; there were five in the Street,1 and three more on the fringe of the village. The men clearly spent a lot of time, and what little money they earned in these hostelries. Many of the publicans were also farmers and they were said to have often paid their workers in liquid form.

This states that a landscape character assessment linked to criteria based policy approach should provide sufficient protection for these areas provided such designations are based on a formal and robust assessment of the qualities of the landscape concerned. Against this background, Chris Burnett Associates (CBA) were commissioned to undertake a review of the Surrey AGLV by the Surrey Planning Officers Association. (SPOA) The study commenced with a review of historic background. It established that the Surrey Hills AONB is closely linked with the designation of the AGLV. The first County Plan approved in 1958 showed the first AGLV area, which was a smaller area incorporating the North Downs escarpment and the area of Greensand Hills surrounding Leith Hill.

  • Crondall Crondall
    Crondall Crondall 1.0 PARISH Crondall 2.0 HUNDRED Crondall 3.0 NGR SU 479500 148500 4.0 GEOLOGY Upper Chalk, but northern extension of settlement just abounds an island of Valley Gravel and Sand. 5.0 SITE CONTEXT Crondall is a complex settlement which is laid out around an intricate network of routeways. In simple terms, there are three elements. The first is linear and follows a south-west / north-east route along Well Lane / Pankridge Street via The Borough. This conforms to the valley of a small stream, a tributary of the River Hart, which rises from a pond at Hannam’s Farm. The valley floor is a little less than 85m AOD, with sides rising to c. 100m AOD to east and west. The second element extends south-eastwards along the road to Clare Park, climbing gently for all of that distance. The third component is at the south-west extreme of Crondall where the parish church of St Mary stands dominant on rising ground (c. 95m AOD). South-west of, and adjacent to the church, are the remnant buildings of the former Court Farm, the site of Crondall’s manor house. 6.0 PLAN TYPE & DESCRIPTION Small farmstead clusters (including church and manor) with agglomerations Crondall is an amalgam of a number of settlement types. 6.1 Church and manor house/ farmstead The Church of St Mary is C12. The adjacent Court Farm was once the venue for the manor court (VCH 4: 6). In fact, the whole complex is at the north end of a linear land unit which extends south to the parish boundary including within it the Barley Pound ring and bailies (10.0).

  • WBC Play Area Strategy – Recommendations
    Recommendations The play area strategy recommendations are set out below, organised into geographical areas, giving an opportunity to see provision for communities as a whole. Where the Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA1) has highlighted potential development sites, these are identified in purple in the appropriate sections, as presenting an opportunity for improved play infrastructure in that area. These sites are not confirmed development sites. They have been added in order to show areas where there may be development and therefore where there may be opportunities for play provision may arise. Principles for setting priorities for refurbishment and investment 1. Consider communities not only wards. Prioritise investments with reference to the all the opportunities for play in a community or area, aiming to achieve suitable play provision for all children and young people and meet the standard of 0.8ha of equipped or informal play provision per 1000 people. Wards are essentially administrative units that enable political accountability and in relation to which data can be organised. Residents regularly cross ward boundaries to access play and other facilities. 2. Look at accessibility – build accessibility into schemes for refurbishing play areas. Where playgrounds can be made more accessible with the addition of short pathways, passing places and pathways within play areas, tactile play opportunities, suitably wide gates that are self-closing and equipment such as swings and rockers with support, this should be done. In general, access to and within all sites will be improved as areas are refurbished or updated, to reflect local requirements. It is recommended that inclusive play is prioritised for at least one play space in each community, where there are (or is the potential for) appropriate ancilliary facilities.
